Top tips for renting a car in Milos
- When considering car hire on the volcanic island of Milos, you will need to be prepared to drive with Greek rules. Luckily, they are not that different from the UK. Milos also has a zero tolerance for drinking and driving, and children will need to be buckled up in the back seat until at least 1.50 m in height. Hire their age-appropriate car seat at the car hire agency with ease. Your phone should not be in your hand at any stage while driving, so hire a Sat Nav for navigation and speak hands-free if needed.
- Milos is an interesting place to drive in, as there are no motorways. The island has two main roads, which are in good condition, and then a myriad of others, which range from rocky gravel to dirt, with mountain passes and beach roads. Some roads are so narrow that two cars cannot pass and one will need to pull over. You never know what you may get once you steer off the beaten path, and that’s why car hire in Milos is so much fun. Not keen to tar many of the roads, Milos keeps it earthy and as natural as possible. The great news is that traffic is not that common either, and there is no such thing as rush hour in Milos.
- Car hire in Milos could be a conflicting decision. Hiring an economy vehicle would make sense to navigate the narrow roads, and a convertible may be tempting along beach fronts. However, as road surfaces are generally all quite rough, the handling of an SUV is probably a better way to see the island. The hills and mountains of the island will be better seen with a more powerful vehicle, too. With the majority of the island being unpaved, a solid 4x4 will do just the trick.
- When it’s time to pay for your Milos car hire, you will find most car hire companies prefer a credit card. The car should always be in the actual renter’s name and not a benefactor or partner. In larger cities and airports you often find the major car hire companies do accept debit cards too, but on an island as small as Milos, this may not be the case. Check the terms and conditions of your car hire company before assuming you can pay with debit card.
- Book your rental car in Milos at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Economy rental cars in Milos are around 28% cheaper than other car types, on average

Should I hire a car in Milos?
There is no doubt car hire in Milos is the best way to see the island. While there are buses available, the public transport system is lacking and independence is key to seeing all the small villages and beautiful beaches. The island itself is only a total of 25 miles (40 km) in length, but there is so much to enjoy that it makes sense to stop and visit all the attractions. The town of Plaka is a famous town for traditional Greek cuisine, where stone streets and ancient homes still stand. Make sure to check out the famous Sarakiniko Beach.
What is driving like in Milos?
Car hire in Milos will be a breeze, particularly as there is not much traffic to contend with on the roads. The locals are big motorcyclists and these can be found zipping behind and around you on the roads, but don’t let the confidence of the local drivers throw you off. Stick to the speed limit and bear in mind occasionally pedestrians or even animals may cross your path. Drive on the right-hand side of the road, as opposed to the UK’s left.
How old do you have to be to hire a car in Milos?
With Milos car hire, you’ll need to be 21 years old in order to hire a car. You would also need to have held your licence for a year. Some car hire agencies have a daily young driver’s fee for anyone under 25, so it pays to get the oldest person in your group to be the responsible hirer. When you collect the vehicle, you need to show them your UK, EU or international driving licence, a passport and, of course, your credit card.
